Touch Wood that I Don't Jinx Myself, Tomodachi

And it's becoming finalized: 6 days in England in November, 8 days in Japan in December. Passport has already arrived. Vacation messages have been sent out at work (thus far, with no complaints). The only bumpy patch is the fact that, in order to cover these 14 days off, I need to use up every last bit of vacation time (except for .96 hours). Which is gonna make for a HELLUVA rough next four months. *Hysterical hiccup*
